Fade of the Day – Brave Star Selvage Slim Straight 21.5 oz. (5 Months, 1 Wash)

Heavy denim fades. You can make a lot happen in just a few months with the heavy-duty stuff, and easily slide into a Fade of the Day.

These 21 oz. Brave Star Selvage jeans sent in to us by Jared, are a great example of that. See how far they’ve come in just 5 months? With only one wash to their name, the jeans are really starting to show their wear pattern. Lots of whiskering and honeycombs complement the minor fades showing at the cuff and pockets. If we can deduce anything from the faded area by  the knees, it’s that Jared is putting serious work in while he wears his Brave Stars.

Jared’s wearing these at the beach in Southern California, in the snow in Big Bear, and doing maintenance on his salon. Putting in the work always pays off when it comes to denim, and sometimes, when you work as hard as Jared – only the heavy stuff will do.
